Abstract

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to identify the frequency of alcohol use disorder (AUD) in bipolar patients who are followed in a specialized mood disorders unit in Turkey. Methods: Mood disorders and alcohol use disorder modules of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders (SCID-I) and the Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) were applied to 111 bipolar patients. Results: The rate of patients with lifetime AUD was 5.4% (6/111). The rate of AUD was higher for males (13.2%) than females (1.4%). Mania was the first episode type for all of the bipolar patients with comorbid AUD and all of them had psychotic symptoms for at least one episode. Conclusion: The rate of AUD in bipolar patients followed in our clinic is lower than Western societies.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada ülkemizde özelleşmiş bir duygudurum bozuklukları biriminden izlenen bipolar bozukluğu olan hastalarda alkol kullanım bozukluğu (AKB) sıklığını tespit etmek amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: 111 bipolar hastaya DSM- IV Eksen- I Bozuklukları İçin Yapılandırılmış Klinik Görüşme Formu (SCID-I) duygudurum ve alkol kullanım bozuklukları modülleri ile Michigan Alkolizm Tarama Testi (MATT) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Yaşamboyu AKB’si olan bipolar bozukluğu olan hastaların oranı %5.4 (6/111) idi. AKB’si olan altı hastanın beşi erkek, biri kadındı. AKB oranı erkeklerde (%13.2) kadınlardan (%1.4) daha yüksekti. AKB eştanısı olan bipolar bozukluğu olan hastaların tamamında ilk dönem tipi mani idi ve hepsinde en az bir dönem psikotik belirtiler görülmüştü. Sonuç: Birimimizden izlenen bipolar bozukluğu olan hastalarda AKB oranı batı toplumlarında yaşayan bipolar bozukluğu olan hastalara göre daha düşüktür.
